Welcome to Your Bright Future

Founded in 1904, Assumption College stands today as one of the top New England Catholic colleges, combining a foundation of liberal arts and sciences with more than 40 majors across the life sciences, business, education and communications fields.

Graduate Studies

When you apply to one of Assumption’s select group of graduate programs, you join an impressive family of working professionals, faculty scholars, consultants, and visiting speakers from the Worcester corporate and education community.
